Root de la Vega [KNOX 0x0 Root | SM-N900T]

joverclock · Oct 17, 2013

i successfully unlocked the sim by using an unlock code on my tmobile note 3 so that I can use it the ATT network. Will rooting it via this method eliminate the sim unlock? If so will the code I previously used unlock it again. Not really sure on how the sim locking thing works. Thanks for the knowledge!!
Also has anyone tried using screen mirroring and the allshare dongle after root. I know some people had issues with the s4 and screen mirroring via allshare dongel after being rooted. Even on the stock rom/ kernel.

ultimate goal is to play gta vice city sent to my big screen via allshare dongle/screen mirroring. Powered my tmobile note 3 on the att network and being controled by a PS3 controler connected to my note 3 via the official samsung OTG cable connected to a mini usb to full size usb cable. Awesome

Why not just use the 6-Axis Controller app on your rooted N3 and then you can connect a PS3 controller via bluetooth after you pair the controller with your phone's MAC address?

Is there an OTA for TMO already for this ? mine isn't expected to deliver until Monday.. i will use this root method as soon as i take it out of the box.. wonder about breaking OTA as well.
read several posts that it indeed will, but that xposed framework can set it so that it will actually work.. i wouldn't mind a confirm though.

saw a screen shot somewhere of someone hitting 'system updates', and getting a message that it's not available because system has been modified..
but they he installed xposed... hit the same system update again , and the screen said 'Your system is up to date'.....

How do you check to see if knox is 0x0 or 0x1?

I was able to check by going back into the boot loader screen. power off, and press vol down, home, and power again.

When I did this I did not wipe my phone first. I thought the process itself wiped the phone. After I was done it worked and all my apps seemed to work fine. Did I do this wrong? Rootcheck confirmed it's working.

No, same thing happened to me. If it didn't wipe and you can confirm root is working, then just continue on with your life and be --->

If I'm not wrong this is stock only with root injected. To go back to stock, master reset in Stock recovery then after that reboot your phone and go to superSu apk and go to settings and then look for full unroot, click on it and reboot. Now you are pure stock with no root.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^Thanks!

Everything seems to be working great, but my email crashes ever so often now. Anyone else have this happen? I did use Titanium backup to remove a bunch of bloatware. I dont think I could have removed anything that would have caused my email to do this.

Yes, but I manually deleted a bunch of files thinking I was cleaning up some junk. I'm worried I might have deleted the wrong file.

Ok, I was able to flash back to stock and knox flag still at 0x0. I got all my files back that I should have froze first then deleted later

I then re-rooted again and life is good!

Still holding off rooting for a bit, but I remember the first time I saw this post I thought it said "Root de la Verga" and I was thinking of short curly pelitos and stinky cheese.

Gang, thank you so much for developing and sharing this root method.

It took me a few minutes and the Note III is rooted successfully. 0 count of Knox and the Xposed Framework is now installed too.

I will make sure I donate a little to you guys in the next few days after I load my PP account.

Note III Tmobile US.

Great work :good:.

I've been reading if you froze/uninstalled My Magazine, it crashes email.

Never would have guesses that. I Un froze that and we'll see if it fixes it.

Did you run TB Restore Fixer after running Titanium? See this link for more information.

Any hope that we'll get a "Triangle Away" type of thing where we can reset the Knox counter back to 0x0 for the poor souls that rooted using the other method?
